You guys crack me up, nice that you decided who would be one after the strike, no wonder we got our butts kicked. An absolute joke, please don't call this a union!
Ya, something like that. Maybe you do not know that when the strike ended the war was not over. We expected another strike in "89." That meant we had to recover some of the scabs. It takes about 9 strikers to offset one scab. If we had a crystal ball, the list would have been longer.
When you are on the street, no one cares about your pedigree, just don't move the meat. At that point, all this noble baloney is irreverent, it's about getting everyone back to work. We did that.
Ask the IAM or the industrial unions how they handle scabs, you will be surprised.
